Shubho Nabo Borsho -- Happy Bengali New Year

Wishing all of you a very Happy New Year

I have not cooked anything special for New Year tomorrow. We celebrated today by ordering Thai Take Out. Tomorrow we will go to the nearby Guruvayoor temple and eat tamarind rice, if they have any that is. No wonder they say the earth is flat.

The day the Lord created hope was probably the same day he created Spring. ~Bern Williams

You can't see Canada across lake Erie, but you know it's there. It's the same with spring. You have to have faith, especially in Cleveland. ~Paul Fleischman

And I am not even in Cleveland

Yesterday the twig was brown and bare;
To-day the glint of green is there;
Tomorrow will be leaflets spare;
I know no thing so wondrous fair,
No miracle so strangely rare.
I wonder what will next be there!
~L.H. Bailey

Happy New Year Sandeepa. The birds are chirping which means Spring must be here. The flowers are in bloom and they are beautiful if only temporarily and I am looking forward to Spring Break for the kids of course.

Shubho Nobo Borsho! I was going to cook something special, but then we've been dealing with wildfires in W. TX, in fact it came within a mile of our farm. Maybe I'll do a late Nobo Borsho & the Wildfire Out dinner....
